Overview: Dr. Wilson’s research is concerned with the neural basis of language. He combines structural and functional neuroimaging techniques with linguistic analysis to study language processing, and how it breaks down in patients with different kinds of aphasia. Dr. Wilson works with patients with aphasias of various etiologies, including neurodegenerative disease and stroke. He is particularly interested in syntactic processing, lexical access, and single word reading. Visit Dr. Wilson’s lab website for more information.
